    Hmm... one thing says "simple mechanism to cancel the negative option feature and immediately halt charges"

     

    So I wonder if that means that Adobe will no longer be able to charge 1/2 of the remaining time of a subscription as an early cancel fee?

    If that is the case, then discounts for long term subscribers will make no sense anymore.
